Birmingham, UK has produced many noteworthy musical acts over the years. Such diverse bands as The Moody Blues, Black Sabbath, and Duran Duran hail from this locality, and each can be considered an iconoclast, eschewing the trends of the day to create something new and exciting. Dissident Prophet is following in the footsteps of their Birmingham forefathers, creating indie music that pulls from a variety of influences. Interwoven into the bedrock of U2, Crowded House and Echo & the Bunnymen are liberal amounts of folk, rockabilly and punk, and an apocalyptic vision that is at the core of the band’s message. If the sound of the band’s name evokes images of a lone voice crying warnings from a street corner, the reality that is Dissident Prophet’s Red Moon Rising isn’t too far from that vision... Jim 1340
